His Eyes

[stivCoffee]

I noticed this the first day we got Coffee. While I was cleaning him up, I notice some red in the white area of his eyes. When I lift his eyelids back a bit, I notice blood vessels around his eyes. Not many, but clearly noticeable. Is this normal? I'm worried because our eyes aren't like that unless we rub it too much or something got into our eyes, right?

From the sounds of it, what you see is normal. I know sometimes when I catch a glimse of Biscuit's eye under the lid, it is pretty red. These are all normal blood vessels. When these hemmorage from pressure or injury of some sort, it is very obvious, but just normal red vessels is a healthy sign.
